Liposuction is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures in the world. This relatively simple procedure has a long history that went through multiple iterations and was assisted by technological innovations to reach a point where it is today.

Liposuction was first invented by two Italian gynaecologists, Dr. Georgio Fister and Dr. Arpad Fischer in the year 1976. Their technique of blunt closed liposuction was published in the year 1978. Here the suction cannulas were quite large and sharp, but they were able to offer satisfactory improvements to the patient’s aesthetics.

This innovation became extremely popular in Europe, however, it wasn’t until the 1980’s that liposuction became popular in the USA. However, technicians still used primitive technology that used large suction cannulas, thus limiting the results one could achieve.

This method was greatly improved when Dr. Jeffery Klein developed and studied the uses of tumescent local anaesthesia. He developed small, non-sharp cannulas which reduced blood loss and thus enabled for a much better fat removal.

This technique has been greatly improved since then and it undergoes constant technological improvements, thus ensuring betterment in liposuction.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) hair loss treatment is a revolutionary new method to treat hair loss. This is a versatile treatment option that can be performed independently or in conjunction with hair transplant treatments. PRP treatments is a long lasting and far more effective method of battling hair loss. It is fast gaining popularity, and is turning out to be one of the most preferred methods of hair loss treatments in the world.

PRP treatments are done in three steps-

A small amount of blood is extracted from the patient. A significant fraction of platelets and growth factors are extracted from the same. A part of the platelet rich fraction is divided to release more growth factor, and is combined with the remaining platelet factor.

The second step involves activating the scalp to effectively accept the PRP, and also provides fertile grounds for hair growth. This activation process also speeds up the healing process.

This stimulated scalp is shown to regrow hair, and thicken existing hair, thus giving you a head full of lush mane. This method strengthens hair follicles, and will ensure a long term, natural hair fall solution.
